My sister-in-law, Barbara Dennis, recently shared a quotation with me that seemed appropriate for this time of year.


It’s important to dot our lives with unscheduled as well as scheduled feast days. That way we remember that we are able to make joy as well as to expect it. Or as Lin Yutang, the Chinese philosopher put it: “Our lives are not in the lap of the gods, but in the lap of our cooks.”
The Hill Team all hope your holidays, current and upcoming, as well as every day going forward, is a celebration of your life.
